  Need some help again. This time sourcing parts. Kinlin XR22T in polished silver 32 asymmetric for the rear and 28 symmetric for the front. I had a look on @cycleclinic but there is only one polished silver in 28 asymmetric. The person for whom I'm planning to build these up already has the hubs and has asked me to help source the rims.

  I've only just started last week. Not sure what brought it on. I have a super low end set up compared to you guys. A 1080p webcam called Loetad and Samson Go Mic, which I used to use for recording audio books. Haven't got a capture card so only gaming on the PC and I'm a sofa and controller gamer so have got some usb extension cables to get the webcam and mic a bit closer.

  I've used twitch-studio, OBS and StreamLabs OBS but as I'm a noob it's Twitch-studio for now till I've tweaked OBS to my liking. Twitch only keeps streams for 2 weeks so I've created a new YouTube channel to archive them. Only done some Fallout 4 so far.

  In terms of gear I think probably a ring light will be the next thing.

  My twitch is here - https://www.twitch.tv/roastporkbelly
  and the youtube archive is here - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCTjMOoN­it5CoKeOT5LKzAhg/about?view_as=subscribe­r

  I want to do some playthroughs of Fallout 4 with different builds, all the Borderlands 2 DLC, AC Black Flag and basically games that I've started and haven't got around to finishing.

  Anyone here do any streaming of their gameplay? On Twitch for example. I've decided to give it a go but there's loads to learn.

  And today I'm scratching my head over hub that has 8 holes on non-drive and 16 on the drive side. Radial and 2-cross? Radial and 3-cross? Not straight pull this time though so feel a bit more confident.

  Ah thanks, I'll give that a go. I could also "borrow" their code and incorporate into my own spoke length calculator.

  Can do them for you if no one else has offered. Have lots of spokes I can cut to length. If you need something specific that I don't have I'll need to order in.

  I imagine that someone has asked this already but I need some guidance with spoke calculations for hubs that require straight pull spokes. I've built some DT Swiss ones and Powertap but they had some guides on their website where you just had to input the ERD. The hubs are fixed to a particular pattern. Got a handful of these builds lined up.

  Fallout 76 is free to play for a couple more days - https://store.steampowered.com/app/11513­40/Fallout_76/
  Have played 3, 4 and New Vegas but most people seem to be hating on Fallout 76 on Twitter.

  Got it for £1.50 on Steam last week on of their deals. Not really a horror fan at all but as it had lots of good reviews thought I'd give it a go. Hmm. Now I'm worried.
